The Department for Professional Employees, AFL-CIO (DPE) – a coalition of 23 national unions representing over four million professional employees – is proud to support the March for Science. Members of DPE affiliate unions include scientists, engineers, teachers, nurses, and others who work in science-related occupations in both the private and public sectors. DPE knows from the work of these women and men that scientific inquiry is necessary for the long-term advancement of us all as individuals and a society. DPE remains committed to helping protect the professional integrity of people engaged in scientific discovery, and to promoting the open, public exchange of facts and ideas that result.
